| HAPPY MOTHERS DAY~ MY DEAR SWEET MOMMY Happy Mothers Day~My Dear Sweet Mommy Even though the years roll swiftly by I still miss you more than words can say Every Mothers' Day I cannot help but cry You went away in the middle of the night And left me all alone To be perfectly honest with you Nothing has been the same since you’ve been gone Your house still sits just around the bend I often drive by and just stop my car in the middle of the road I think about just walking right on in If I close my eyes real tight I can hear you sing After the song has ended And the tears have stained my face I think about God and that “Amazing Grace” Oh Lord, Help me, I am searching for your face But I know I can never find you No never, not down here in this old place Every Mothers Day A pain stabs me in my heart This heart of mine that calls your name Is still the best part. I want to give you a great big hug and lay on those baby charms since I am the baby in the family I need to be held in your arms I want to lay those dozen red roses in your lap I miss you Mom and nothing can fill that empty gap The one and only thing that would even come close To complimenting you Would be a big red rose. Mothers day without you is more than I can bear I can see you sitting in your favorite chair I can see me with the brush in my hand Brushing your long silver locks of hair Separating each silvery strand Mom I need to hold you close Heaven knows I need to smell the cinnamon on your little flowery dress Of all the bakers in the whole wide world you were the best. In our collection of the best spices Our little jar of cinnamon was the nicest Our baking needs were all complete As long as we had that little jar It is still the best spice in the Whole wide world by far. On that special day, you would put on your newest dress You would always say, “Mary I am all dressed up and going nowhere” I would say, “Mom, where would you like to go”? You would say with a little giggle, “Why Mary, do you have to ask”? It is such an easy task Heaven calls, it’s been calling to me for years I can see it there in the distance Her eyes filled up with tears She tried to teach me everything Until the very end “Mary, all you have to do is look Just try Put on your spiritual eyes Now Mary listen Do you not hear their cries"? The angels are bidding me, “come on home” Then she would let out a big long sigh It was a sound of joy, a satisfaction tone Mom I need to let you know that I have found that hope As long as there’s a breath in my body And I can feel the floor beneath my knees I will keep persevering Seeking Godly things You must know by now that I finally understand God has taught me everything I am wearing a new garment, it has a special brand I’ve put on a brand new look, you would be so proud Spiritual eyes Spiritual ears My feet are even walking on holy ground Some glorious morning as the sun begins to shine I will be coming your way, ready to dine I will hear his voice as he calls my name “Mary, come on home my child And rest for a little while”. I will fly away to meet the Son Never more to return Have the cinnamon ready What a celebration we will have Baking for that big supper Beyond the clouds I love you Mom Happy Mothers day 2006 |
